HBO Max has picked up TBS comedy “Search Party” beginning in 2020, with the third season moving to the upcoming digital streamer and a fourth season ordered. Debuting on TBS on Nov. 21, 2016, “Search Party” is about a group of privileged, self-absorbed twenty-somethings covering up a murder. It stars Alia Shawkat, Meredith Hagner, Brandon Micheal Hall, John Early and John Reynolds.

The second season of “Search Party” focused on the death of Keith Powell (Ron Livingston), a private investigator who is killed as a result of Dory (Alia Shawkat) mistakenly believing him to be a threat to Chantal. As the group struggles to return to their normal lives, they also attempt to cover up Keith’s death, which affects them in various ways.
